Abstract: (335 Views) |
The biggest issue facing both industrialized and emerging nations these days is traffic congestion, which has changed people's perspectives on public transportation systems and accelerated efforts to make them more efficient. Urban traffic issues are a result of various factors, including population growth and the rise in private vehicle ownership. Urban public transportation is currently one of the primary strategies for reducing urban traffic congestion. Building simulation models allows for a more precise analysis of the basic capacity of buses at transfer stations on a given route, trip frequency, passenger behavior, and waiting times. This study suggests using a digital twin design to plan bus routes, reduce wait times for passengers, maximize bus frequency, and investigate the relationship between overall traffic flow and passengers. The Anylogic package program was utilized, which is a helpful tool for digital twin modeling and multi-method simulation. The usefulness of the digital twin concept—which links the physical and virtual worlds—was highlighted in determining the ideal number of trips and trip intervals as a result of the examinations made with the model's outputs. This allows for the instantaneous monitoring and storing of data in its physical conditions.
